My headcanon for possible hypothetical stage production of Epic is that whoever plays Telemachus also plays young Odysseus in WOTM while old Odysseus looks at the scene from the side. Hear me out.
Open arms ends with tired Odysseus sitting on a log and Polites joining him for the final, soft "greet the world with open arms, greet the world with open arms". After Polites ends the song, everything freezes and the light changes. Odysseus gets pulled into quickthought by Athena.
He stands up and the log with Polites goes offstage (prolly a turnrable or smth). At this point Athena is only a voice. She enters the stage after "Let me remind you" and right before "goddess of wisdom, master of war" *cue applause*. Odysseus moves away to the side of the stage and watches.
As Athena sings her verse, young Odysseus (a.k.a. the actor for Telemachus) play-fights with his friends in the back of the stage. When Athena sings about the boar, they immitate young Ody defeating the boar (prolly one actor holding a big prop of a boar head).
Then young Ody runs to the center of the stage for the "Show yourself" part, then him and Athena have this whole duet.
Now present Odysseus takes a few steps towards the center, where young Ody and Athena have their little training choreography.
The song ends with Ody winning against Athena in practice and Athena singing "I still intend to make sure you don't fall behind" while young Ody listens to her carefully. When she sings "You are a warrior of the mind", young Ody runs offstage, right past the present Odysseus and Athena sings "Don't disappoint me" to the present Odysseus!
Athena disappears, Polites approaches Odysseus and they return to the ship.
Thank you *drops mic*

open rp - {Morgan LeFay} - open to anyone
"Let me get this straight, you came all this way to audition without reading anything about what you're auditioning for?" Morgan was confused and a little aggravated by the individual's arrival. All she ever asked was for anyone to come to prepare one line of the play, one simple part to play for a brief moment. This person had prepared nothing.
"This isn't a musical, it's not a movie, and we're not looking for anyone based off their appearance. It's about talent, but being prepared upon arrival doesn't make me feel as if you have what we need."

I saw Longlegs with my brothers a few days ago and this was my immediate conclusion
#AND they're all set in the 90s#I like all of these characters more than I like lee but she's a lovely combination of them to me#I liked it a lot at least directorally and I was scared in the theater but retroactively I'm not scared of it at all#clarice starling#fox mulder#dana scully#dale cooper#lee harker#silence of the lambs#the x files#twin peaks#longlegs 2024

#playing by heart#gillian anderson#gandersonedit#filmgifs#moviegifs#userfilm#filmedit#filmandtv#motionpicturesource#filmtvtoday#tvfilmspot#ladiesofcinema#mine#she is so babygirl in this movie i couldn't resist giffing her#even though i'm sure no one has seen this lol#and yes her onscreen counterpart is jon stewart and yes it's weird and no they don't have any chemistry#still it was very cute and i recommend watching at least for gillian#she's a theater director who accidentally married a gay man and now she doesn't trust men#though this movie would've been 5 million times better if they just made her a lesbian

It's very sad that I can't find a gifset that captures the manic, delightful, stupid, the-show-must-go-on-even-if-he-has-a-concussion!!! energy of The Goes Wrong Show, because as someone who did theater in high school, and has met a couple people who are professional performers.....it might be the most accurate depiction of Theater People I've ever seen.
#there is a specific sort of madness that drives certain human beings towards live regional theater.#this is different than what drives people to be famous! people are famous for lots of reasons.#but the folks who do regional theater in cincinnati or ann arbor or Fictional British Town? they are their own breed.#they care so much.#they have vision like an auteur director. they are insistent that the lyrics be enunciated even if the lyrics are stupid.#the smaller your molehill the more you can police it. mountains are so big!!#a proscenium for our dreams

✨️Artists✨️
#it makes me so happy when i think about all the kids are all artistically inclined in their own way#theres only so much i could show with these images but theres more#i wanted to show the way amity plays with goo and molds it to her design is art in its own right#but its worth noting that she also writes!#and luz drawing and writing are her most notable creative outlets#but she also does taxidermy!! and she has an interest in theater. she edited romeo and juliet to be more visually appealing. and bloody#gus too!! gus can draw really well!!#but i think he expresses himself creatively the most through his illusions#its drama. its kinda like theater performances. its a one man show#but its also conjuring images from your imagination. hes also the director yknow

Maybe this is because im a professional theater artist but i do think its really funny that daniel acts like armand being the director of the trial is such a slam dunk and means he was responsible for the whole thing. Girl director is just a job. Directors aren't dictators they're just in charge of the visual language of the piece. If theyre gonna kill his boyfriend on his stage hes gonna make sure the blocking isnt ass. Hes a professional.
#so film and tv of the writers to act like him being the director meant it was His Project#but they do theater bitch!!! its a collaboration!!!#like if we really want to get into it santiago was the producer. he commissioned the damn play. he hired armand to direct it.#its HIS project#blorboposting#interview with the vampire#armand#iwtv

I think Batman and Robin (2024) missed out on making Damian a theater kid. Him playing soccer was fine, but I think theater could’ve been a fun storyline and have Damian’s personality shine though with the entire “outcast” thing they were trying to pull with him getting bullied

open rp - {Morgan Lefay} {m, f or other}
"It works, it works but it doesn't flow as it was written..." This wasn't the first time Morgan had called one of her actors away from the stage. It was getting more and more obvious the problem wasn't with the writing but with the presentation. "You need to emphasize how the character feels." She didn't care if it was by the words or by the performance. Something had to be done about the lack of drive.
"If we can't get this to work I will have to push you back and let someone else take over."

Phoenix, walking into a room and seeing Handler and Prism talking: *waves*
Handler: Oh, Agent! We were just talking about you-
Prism: YOU'RE TWENTY TWO?!
Phoenix, baffled: Uh... yes?
Prism: You're a baby! You can't even rent a car on your own!
Phoenix: I can't???
Handler: Well, at least you can drink.
#This is not to infantalize Phoenix#This LITERALLY happened to me at rehearsals today#like damn#I thought I was a grown ass adult#but apparently to 40+ year olds 22 is a baby#ieytd#i expect you to die#agent phoenix#The director of our community theater was baffled I was in my early 20's#I thought I looked my age but apparently not
